Grants and Contributions

About this information

In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.

The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.

Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Agreement:

Drainage improvement and paving of the section of the Le P'tit Train du Nord

Duration: from Jun 4, 2024 to Mar 31, 2025
Description:

This project involves building a solid waterproof foundation, replacing the subgrade with high-quality compacted granular material, paving the 18.4-km stretch of road, and applying pavement markings, in accordance with the engineering plans and specifications commissioned by the RCM in 2021. Completion of these two consecutive phases will optimize and consolidate the recreational and tourism potential of 18.4 km of multi-use pathway, substantially increase safety for all users of the Linear Park by correcting the soft subgrade problem and the resulting risk of falls, and enhance general accessibility for people using three-wheeled scooters or wheelchairs, for example.

Digitizing Photographs from Inuvialuit Oral History Projects

Agreement Number:

LHOV-05-068

Duration: from Jun 4, 2024 to Mar 31, 2025
Description:

Between 1990 and 2000, the Inuvialuit Social Development Program (ISDP) conducted three major oral history projects to document Inuvialuit use and traditional knowledge of the Yukon North Slope (including Herschel Island) and Banks Island (Northwest Territories). These were: 1) the Qikiqtaruk (Herschel Island) Cultural Study (1990–1991); 2) the Yukon North Slope Cultural Resources Survey (1991–1994); and 3) the Aulavik Oral History Project (1995–2000).

Thanks to 2022–2023 funding from Library and Archives Canada's Listen, Hear Our Voices, the audio and textual materials produced during these oral history projects are now accessible on the Inuvialuit Digital Library (IDL) website.

The current project’s goal is to digitize 664 slides and photographs from these three Inuvialuit oral history projects and integrate them into the Inuvialuit Digital Library. Activities include sorting, identifying, and digitizing 182 colour slides and 482 black-and-white photographs depicting Inuvialuit Elders, the places they visited, and the heritage features they discussed. After digitization, these images and their accompanying information will be added to the Inuvialuit Digital Library. Furthermore, 844 photographs already available on the IDL website will be reviewed to address missing information and edit mistakes.
